Euler diagrams have been used for centuries as a means for conveying logical statements in a simple, intuitive way. They form the basis of many diagrammatic notations used to represent set-theoretic relationships in a wide range of contexts including software modelling, logical reasoning systems, statistical data representation, database search queries and file system management. In this paper ...

The harmony search algorithm is applied to the optimum designs of functionally graded (FG)-carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-reinforced pipes conveying fluid which are subjected to a moving load. The structure is modeled by the Reddy cylindrical shell theory, and the motion equations are derived by Hamilton's principle. The dynamic displacement of the system is derived based on the differential quadratur...

Partitioning is often used to support better graph drawing; in this paper, we describe an interactive system in which graph drawing is used to support better partitioning. In our system the user is presented with a drawing of a current network partitioning, and is responsible for choosing appropriate optimization procedures and for focusing their application on portions of the network. Our pilo...

the complete 3d nonlinear dynamic problem of extensible, flexible risers conveying fluid is considered. for describing the dynamics of the system, the newtonian derivation procedure is followed. the velocity field inside the pipe formulated using hydrostatic and bernoulli equations. the hydrodynamic effects of external fluids are taken into consideration through the nonlinear drag forces in var...

We present a database of high-definition (HD) videos for the study of traits inferred from whole-body actions. Twenty-nine actors (19 female) were filmed performing different actions-walking, picking up a box, putting down a box, jumping, sitting down, and standing and acting-while conveying different traits, including four emotions (anger, fear, happiness, sadness), untrustworthiness, and neut...

One of the most challenging aspects in semi-mobile in-pit crushing and conveying (SMIPCC) system design is determining optimum depth at which to change from a purely truck-based haulage conveyor-based system. We used scenario analysis determine transition between truck shovel (TS) SMIPCC Traditional pit-limit algorithms were generate final pit limit on copper deposit, was then divided into four...

First, through a single factor test, it was determined that the conveying and feeding speed range 0.9~1.5 m/s, rotating of straw chopper shaft 1900~2300 r/min, moisture content 26~34%. Then Box–Behnken experimental design method adopted, with speed, cutter rotation as influencing factors; small stable specific power consumption maximum coverage uniformity are taken evaluation indexes. The influ...
